Featured reviews
This film is a unique tale of romance in a office. You know man meets woman, then his friend turns up one day.
I do like this kind of British horror film. It made me laugh, it made me look away in parts and it did not take itself to seriously . The effects, sounds and sets are good some of the cinematography was not as good the comedy did make up for that.
You can see some nods to other film styles but you kind of expect that in this kind of film. I would of liked to know some of the who's and whys to move the story along. As this is the directors first feature film all I can say is well done please carry on.

Really enjoyed this movie, all kinds of wrong in a really good way. Really funny with solid performances, loved the random cameos.
Without a doubt one of the best indie films of the last ten years, a real piece of art. Loads of blood and gore and sick things said and done, a true tribute to the 80's from someone (Liam the director) who clearly knows what he is doing.

Do check this undiscovered and under the radar gem. I won't give too much away but strong performances from a fabulous cast including scream queen Dani Thomson. Inspired by the Troma type movies in the USA but with a British Twist.
Peltzer is a defeated man. That's his lot in life and it guides his every decision. Many a good horror movie has a weak-link character whose role is to make the irrational decisions necessary to forward the plot: Harry Cooper in Return of the Living Dead, Miguel Ferrer in Deep Star Six. Now imagine the lead character in a story being such a man.
That's the strong point of this movie. It leaves the viewer squirming in their seat, helpless as we ever could be. There's no use shouting at the screen, no point cursing the character; he's going to do what he has to do and you can only enjoy the train wreck.
As typical per a Troma-style movie, you have unrelenting bullies who utterly humiliate the most vulnerable characters. People you want to die the most horrible deaths imaginable, but I don't want to spoil that.
Cool points go to the writer for dropping Henenlotter's name on one of the facilities.
My Bloody Banjo is the debut feature film by Liam Regan. A funny, gory, messy horror comedy gem that is slowly gaining recognition as a modern cult classic. Peltzer, a young office clerk and eternal loser seeks revenge on his co-workers and the bullies that have turned his life to a living nightmare, he can't do it though without the help and influence of his deranged imaginary best friend Ronnie. There's a lot of pitch black humour and over the top gore. Laurence R. Harvey from Human Centipede fame and Lloyd Kaufman both appear in minor roles as well.
